Ripper

Yet another unimaginatively named set of scripts for automatically ripping cds and dvds under linux when you shove a disk in the machine.

What it does

If you stick a CD in your computer, it rips and tags everything to flac. If you stick a DVD in your computer, it rips the main feature to h264. (Not yet implemented)

Why?

Yeah, I know most people stream everything, but I ripped most of my cd collection to mp3 back in the day and I still use that local music repository on my Sonos speakers. I wanted to re-rip everything to flac for better quality and to fill in some gaps in my collection. I didn't want to do a load of manual work beyond sticking a disk in the machine and have it go to town.

I plan on doing the same for my DVD collection.

Installation

  1. dump the contents of this repo to somewhere local. /opt/ripper might be a decent choice. Or wherever.
  2. sudo cp 99-diskinsert-ripper.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/
  3. sudo udevadm control --reload
  4. sudo cp rip_cd.service /etc/systemd/system/
  5. sudo cp rip_dvd.service /etc/systemd/system/
  6. sudo cp ripper.conf /etc/
  7. edit /etc/ripper.conf to point to the correct drive and folder locations.
  8. sudo systemctl daemon-reload
  9. sudo systemctl enable rip_cd.service
  10. sudo systemctl enable rip_dvd.service

Now stick a CD in your optical drive and after a few minutes you should see flac files appear in the folder you defined in /etc/ripper.conf.

To-do

  1. Notify when done. Just eject disk?
  2. Implement DVD ripping
  3. ???
  4. Profit.
